Fog collection holds promise for addressing water shortage. However, the conventional fabrication of fog collection devices, normally chemical methods, suffers many challenges, such as complicated preparation and environmental issues. Herein, we proposed a green fabrication strategy to construct superhydrophobic/hydrophilic surfaces on the brass substrate via the combination of laser fabrication and heat treatment. The wettability of brass is directly dictated by the laser process parameters. The different superhydrophobic/hydrophilic hybrid pattern surface with a rectangular/triangular array ...
